Conductors George Young and Hamil
ton and Engineers Wilson and Gibson
made trips to Ravenna on stock trains,
owing to an insufficient number of
crews cast of Seneca to handle this ex
tra amount of business-
A new theory as to what the Union
Pacific is really going to do in tho
North Platte valley was turned loose
by Fred McMindcs, who was up irom
Bayard this week, sayB the Scottsbluff
Star. It has been thought that all tho
possibilities had been guessed and there
couldn't bo anything new put forth.
Different ones have had the U. P.
stopping at Northport, stopping at
Bridgeport, going over the table to the
northwest, going up Pumpkin creek
valley, crossing the river below North
port, crossing on the Burlington bridge
at Bridgeport, crossing at Camp Clarke,
crossing at Minatare, crossing at Scotts
bluff, running on the Burlington track
to Scottsbluff, running on the Burling
ton track to Fort Laramie, etc, etc.
The new theory advanced by 'Mr. Mc
Mindcs sounds about as reasonable as
any of them and has the distinction of
being something new. His idea as to
where the U. P. is going is that it in
tends to turn around and go back
again. It is never safe to say that the
possibilities have all been exhausted.
